I have no trick, but you can alter the behaviour to what you want by changing the IsComment function of the Inifiles unit. Unfortunately it is a stand-alone function, not a virtual method of TIniFile which could be overridden without needing to tinker with the source. Simply change it to the following:


--- Code: ---
function IsComment(const AString: string): boolean;
const
  Comments: set of Char =[';','#'];
var
  c: char;
begin
  Result := False;
  if (AString > '') then
    Result:=(AString[1] in Comments);
end;
--- End code ---

Rather than alter the sources, I would just copy the source to your project directory, renaming to something other than inifile, and put the altered file in your uses clause, rather than inifile.
